Forger's Box Buff Broken for Ranger

I just upgraded my Forger's Box to mythic. Looking at my Power and upon using it, I noticed the buff either doesn't apply at all (should be a +3% to Power) or the buff is temporary, which seems to go away after you exit combat stance of the first battle after initiating the Forger's Box.

    I rechecked your report but didn't find this bug, so I think you should explain the bug in more detail. I also found another bug: all my buffs disappear after instant instance changing. Maybe this was the reason of the buff's loses?

    I will be more than happy to clarify. My mythic Forger's Box is in the potion tray. When I activate it by pressing the appropriate number key, sometimes the 3% Power buff is added and sometimes it's not. When it is added, I find the buff disappears at random. I check after a fight to discover the 3% Power buff is gone. At this point, there is still time remaining on the Forger's Box with a number over the box's icon.

    I tested the Forger's Box with my alts and had my daughter test her account's toon. It seems to be problematic with Rangers. Her Ranger did not receive the Power buff either. The test on the Warlock, Paladin, Barbarian, and Fighter all seemed to keep the Power buff. The test was rather quick with a couple of mob fights.

    Thanks for the info! I'll pass it on for internal investigation.

    Can you test to see if maybe it's an ability that is causing it to be removed? I would test it on my ranger but he doesn't have the box. Perhaps it has to do with an encounter that gives you a buff that overrides the +3% Power. Just a theory that could help pin down the bug.

    Thank you @Nitocris83, @Malakut, and @Elderislt for your messages.

    @nitocris83 Thank you for looking into this. I will post any additional follow-up I figure out. Would this have anything to do with the constant "Must Equip a Weapon" issue that pops up the first time I log into my Ranger?

    @malakut#1916 Most times the Power buff is never added from the initial activation. I will watch to see if a particular encounter removes the buff.

    @elderislt#1066 I didn't realize the Forger's Box buff is removed upon death, but for this issue I did not die. I initialized the Box and engaged in 1-2 mob battles to find it gone.
